Tour Policy

We only provide exclusive and  private tour services which are intended for your group only. We do not add other groups to your tour, nor do we accept bookings for individuals joining together to fill our seats.  Our tours are not designed for split groups and your booking may be cancelled if we suspect this is the case.

Tour Prices

All tour prices are quoted per tour, on a daily basis and are dependent on the number of persons.  All prices are quoted in Pounds Sterling (GBP). Tour prices include exclusive use of a private vehicle, the services of a driver/guide, car parking fees, transfers and local taxes.  If your tour includes a ferry crossing, the costs associated with them (include those for the guide) will be highlighted to you, prior to booking.  
By making payment of a deposit you hereby agree to these Terms & Conditions.

Please note that tour prices do not include admission fees to any paid sites, hotels, meals, ferry costs or tips.

Tour prices are final at the time of booking.  If you do wish to amend or adapt any portion of your tour, following the payment of the balance, we will do our utmost to accommodate you, though some changes may incur an extra cost.  Any amended totals will be highlighted to you prior to payment of the balance.

Tour booking and Payment

Single Day Tours payment is required in full at the time of booking.  For Multi-Day Tours, a 50% deposit is required at the time of booking to secure your tour dates.  The individual who pays the balance is deemed to have done so on behalf of the tour party.  Payment of deposit/balance will be taken as confirmation that you have read, understood and agree to these Terms & Conditions.

For Multi-Day Tours Payment of balance is due 8 weeks prior to the commencement of the tour.  If any bookings are made within eight weeks of your tour date, full payment will be requested for your tour.

In the unlikely event of any cancellation by the Company any monies paid by client to the Company will be fully refunded.

In the event of client cancellation prior to 8 weeks before departure date, at which time the balance of the tour price will become due, full payment minus deposit and any third party costs incurred, will be returned. In the event of a cancellation of multi day tours or overnight extended touring by the customer, cancellation charges shall be as follows: - Cancellation not less than 8 weeks prior - fully refundable less deposit. Cancellation 8 to 4 weeks prior - fully refundable less 75% of the value of the trip. Cancellation within 30 days - non-refundable.  If the tour is reduced or cut short whilst on tour by the client no refunds are available under any circumstances.

Accommodation

Please note that we do not arrange or book accommodation, though we are happy to provide help, advice or recommendations.  We believe that you are the best judge in regards to the type of accommodation that you wish to stay in during your holiday.

Please note that it is your responsibility to book accommodation which is within or very near to the particular town or city from which the tour leaves on any given day.  Please Contact Us if you are unsure as to the proximity of your accommodation to the departure town or city.

Insurances

The Company and its vehicle(s) are insured for passenger and third party claims, as required by law. However, whilst every care is always taken, customers' personal property is carried entirely at their own risk and no responsibility can be accepted for loss or damage thereto. Customers are therefore strongly advised to ensure that they carry adequate and relevant travel, medical and cancellation insurance.  In the event of client illness, then the relevant client must accept responsibility for any medical costs incurred and the Company shall not be liable to refund any part of the tour cost. It is incumbent on each client to ensure that insurance cover held is both current and adequate for the particular needs of such client and/or group for which such client is responsible.  All visitors from overseas must have insurance to cover accident and repatriation.

Liability

The Company accepts no liability for loss, damage, delay, inconvenience, or direct or consequential loss, however caused, unless due to our negligence, in which case our liability is limited to a maximum of the tour cost.  Any activities such as walks or visits to attractions are completely at the clients own risk.

The Company will use all reasonable means to ensure that the vehicle arrives on time to begin the tour and that it reaches its destination on time. The Company will not incur any liability whatsoever in the event of any delay due to causes or circumstances beyond its control.
